In reality, there are very few experienced trial attorneys.

Even rarer are lead trial attorneys, the ones who command the courtroom, control the environment, direct the second and third chair attorneys, and most importantly, impact and influence the ultimate result, the verdict.  Thousands of lawyers claim to be litigators, but the hard truth is that the most difficult and challenging job in the entire field of law is that of the lead trial attorney.

Since graduating from one of America’s premier ivy league law schools over 35 years ago, Jonathan Shirian has been the lead trial attorney in thousands of cases and hundreds of trials where the real battles are waged.  Jonathan Shirian’s clients have emerged the victors in the vast majority of these cases.  So much so that while other law firms and lawyers commonly claim to have achieved fantasy numbers of dollars in settlements or to have scored huge verdicts, the truth is that Jonathan Shirian has singularly achieved verdicts that are among the highest verdicts ever obtained anywhere in lemon law.  And conventional wisdom time and again shows that verdicts drive settlements!  Settlements and verdicts mean results for clients. Jonathan Shirian at the helm of West Point Legal ensures that clients of the firm will receive unparalleled representation.

Winning industry awards for record verdict after record verdict year after year, Jonathan Shirian’s only competition has been… himself.  Just a small sample of opponents Jonathan Shirian has defeated includes senior trial attorneys and their teams at some of the most notable law firms across the country from Sullivan & Cromwell all the way down to national and local firms such as Bowman & Brooke, Gordon & Reese, Greenberg Traurig, and countless others.  Major automobile manufacturers and distributors, one after the other have ended up on the losing side whether it’s been Ford, Kia, Hyundai, VW, you name it.
